Last night the Duke Blue Devils won the NCAA Men's National title, tonight it's the ladies turn and all the attention is on the UConn Husky's.

 

It's a big night tonight for Geno Auriemma and the UConn Husky ladies as they set their sights on their 10th National Championship.

The Huskies face Notre Dame tonight night in a rematch of last year's national championship game, and once again it's Geno vs Muffet McGraw. With a win, and a 10th National Title Geno could tie the record set by former UCLA men's coach Jon Wooden.

Auriemma has a perfect record with the title on the line, winning all nine of UConn's trips to the national championship. "This isn't something that's going to last forever," he said. "Not going to win every single championship game that we're in. If we're in some more, but up to this point, it's something that's really hard to explain. And I'm just incredibly grateful."

With a victory by UConn, it would be the third time in NCAA history that a team won three straight titles. Tennessee did it from 1996-98 and the Huskies from 2002-04.

The championship game will undoubtedly add to the rivalry between the two programs, which in recent history has been intensified by head coaches Geno Auriemma and Muffet McGraw. These two programs have made it very clear that while they respect each other, they definitely don’t like each other.

Tonight the stakes will be even higher. Will UConn defend their title? Or will McGraw, Loyd and crew take home a revenge win and a national title?

You can catch all the action tonight. Coverage starts at 7:30pm on ESPN.
